I think the thing that you need to realize is that just because a team does not make an agreement does not mean that they will attack the multiplier stacks. Most of us figured out a long time ago that is not the smart way to play this game. The priorities in any match need to be as follows:
1.) Win the match
2.) Leave the opponents with as many points as possible
It is important to keep the priorities above in the correct order.

Well stated.

I think there was some question as to whether we fixed the match where we achieved our High Score of 383 QPs. But we did not. The match was in favor of us because on of the oppositions robots had flipped over, and I believe that the team thought it was in it's best interest to leave our stack alone so they would recieve more points. Not to mention we were well prepared to defend our stack had the robot attempted to knock down our stack. So refering to what MattB said above I think both of the alliances had our priorities in order. But there was no pre-match agreement made. And if we could have afforded to go to Nationals this year/we were in Curie. I would sign this honor code on behalf of my team.

-Thanks
Jonathan
